Hello! What request/code is given you that error?
regal spoke
I'm not sure. The error does not tell me which function it's calling. and it does not happen every time when I going through the same process. it's just that sometimes it shows up, and sometimes it does not. I'm using stripe api in multiple places in the backend so hard to tell. sorry.
visual creek
Are you working with connect accounts at all?
regal spoke
yea I have a stripe account
visual creek
Sorry let me clarify - are you working with Connect (so do you create additional connected accounts that connect to your platform?
regal spoke
yea I do
visual creek
That's probably the issue - for accounts created in livemode, there are some requests that can only be done in live mode. I think requests like adding an external account can only be done in live mode for real connect accounts
regal spoke
oh thanks. so do I resolve the error by removing the connected account?
visual creek
Well it depends on what you're trying to do - is this code meant to only be used in test mode? Or is this the same code you use in live mode?
regal spoke
yes it's the same code
visual creek
Gotcha - and do you have any protections to make sure that you're only calling things in livemode for livemode accounts and testmode for test mode accounts?
regal spoke
I don't believe so. maybe I should add that?
visual creek
Yeah, I'd definitely recommend that as a starting point
regal spoke
can you share me docs to reference?
